    Vol. 7, Issue 26 Newsstand Price $1.50 per week Thursday, February 27, 2020 Council IN THE PROVINCIAL SPOTLIGHT behind chief in exit of eight Wyoming firefighters Heather Wright The Independent Wyoming residents waiting for answers on the departure of eight firefighters won’t be getting any. Plympton-Wyoming council - in a news released issued after two private meetings about the dismissal of three senior firefighters and the resignation and retirement of now five others in protest - says its fire department is strong. But it says nothing about the circumstances which led to the departure of now eight members of the Wyoming station. On Feb. 11, The district chief, lieutenant and a 26 year-veteran firefighter were dismissed by Plympton-Wyoming Chief Steve Clemens. Clemens said a private human resources firm had been hired in December to start an investigation. That probe led to another investigation. Clemens says he reviewed both investigations and then let the members of the fire service go. DAWSON CURRIE PHOTO Clemens wouldn’t say what the specific Brooke Sinclair, seen here through the lense of a camera, was ready for her close up as a film crew came to LCCVI recently to issue was, but did say the investigation interview the Grade 12 student who won the prestigious Marion Drysdale Award from the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ centered on issues concerning the Federation. Sinclair submitted a poem she wrote about Indigenous singer Buffy Sainte-Marie. It was a school assignment where Occupational Health and Safety Act. students had to find someone who inspired them and write a poem.
